    Cheeky beggars! No, I mean the horse and little carriage thingys that people travel around on. The fellah (Jeremy somebody) that used to do "Airport" several years ago used to go on one whenever he was there. A name similar to Troska or summat like that...no I don't mean the entire ruddy ballet or them dancers on low legs! :rolleyes:

  • Hello Everyone!:hello:

    I am back! Thanks for the messages.

    I had a little baby girl on the 3rd of January (my actual due date) weighing 7lb 12 oz. She has a full bill of health, a head full of hair and is absolutely gorgeous! :smileyhea:j

    And of course I am now looking for a little pot/money bank for her to have too!

    So as I have been at home all week (escaped from hospital on Monday! phew! soooo noisy in there!) I haven't spent any money so nothing for the pot from me this week.:money: Maybe next week I'll have something to contribute.

    Happy New Year everyone! Hope that you challenges are going well and the snow isn't causing too many problems for you xxx
